Using Psychometrics to Improve Recruitment Outcomes with Christian Hughes

In the latest episode of the Recruitment Leadership Podcast, your host, Alison Humphries is joined by Christian Hughes, CEO of MyPeople Group.   Many recruitment business leaders will have either listened to podcast episodes (including The Recruitment Leadership Podcast!) concerned with psychometrics, or know something about them from their own experience.    However, within the current market, MyPeople will be of specific interest to a lot of recruiters.   In this episode, Christian and Alison discuss, dissect and demonstrate how psychometric assessments can be used to evaluate culture fit and predict job performance.    Within a demonstration of MyPeople’s assessment tool, Christian showcases how they measure both a candidate's personality and values as well as a hiring manager's team culture. In turn, the tool aims to help recruiters make better hiring decisions by understanding how well a candidate will connect with and contribute to the existing team - pretty invaluable for both clients and internal hiring.   To get the most out of the demonstration, it is well worth tuning into the video version of the episode which can be found on Youtube: https://youtu.be/q3AgunXxP80  Timestamped Guide: 01:04 - Introduction to Christian 04:45 - Why did you think MyPeople was something new that was needed? 08:49 - Can you explain the context of MyPeople? 11:02 - Product Demonstration 16:21 - How would recruiters sell this to clients? 26:25 - Is there anything that MyPeople doesn't do? 27:29 - Lots of recruitment business owners that I know are trying to educate their clients about EDI?
